Board of Trustees Chair Role
Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of young migrants? Do you believe in creating a fair and inclusive society for all?
Immigration is not just a topic of discussion—it's a reality for thousands of young people in the UK. At We Belong, we're pioneering change. We're not just another charity; we're a community led by young migrants, fighting for equal treatment and an end to the hostile immigration environment.
Our Mission:
Co-Founded in 2019 by Chrisann Jarrett MBE, We Belong is more than a charity—it's a force for change. We've already achieved significant victories, from challenging unfair immigration policies to securing scholarships for deserving young people. In 2021, We Belong’s work contributed to a new shorter route to settlement being introduced. Young migrants who are fully integrated in the UK now have five-year route to settlement, rather than the previous 10-years. It’s estimated that that over 300,000 children and young people could benefit from this policy change. Now, we're on a new mission: to ensure that every young migrant has the opportunity to thrive in the UK.
What We Offer:
- Immigration Support: Legal advice, training, and resources to empower young migrants.
- University and Career Support: Guidance on applications, scholarships, and career pathways.
- Leadership Development: Mentorship programs to nurture the leaders of tomorrow.
- Engagement Opportunities: Join our outreach and community engagement efforts.
- Safe Space & Community: A supportive network for guidance and connection.

The Opportunity:
We Belong is seeking a voluntary Chair to lead our board of Trustees. This is a chance to drive real change, working alongside passionate individuals dedicated to our cause. We need someone with strategic vision, governance experience, and a commitment to diversity and inclusion.
Key Responsibilities:
- Chair board meetings and provide strategic leadership to the Trustee team.
- Ensure compliance with governing documents and charitable objectives.
- Support the CEO on strategy and best practices.
- Critically assess risks and opportunities and develop effective strategies in the context of the Charitable purpose of We Belong.
- Resolve conflicts and make timely decisions.
Experience & Skills:
We're looking for someone with a background in the migration field, governance, or related fields. Experience in leadership is essential, advocacy, or youth development is highly desirable. We value lived experience and so candidates with lived experience of the UK immigration system are welcome to apply. Most importantly, we need someone with a passion for making a difference.
Time Commitment & Location:
Preparation for quarterly board meetings, both in person and remote, as well as the opportunity to participate in selected committees. The Chair will also supervise the CEO through regular 1:1 meeting and represent We Belong at sector events.
